Larry Cahill, Ph.D.

Larry Cahill, Ph.D., is a professor in the Department of
Neurobiology and Behavior at the University of California, Irvine. He first
became interested in brain and memory as an undergraduate at Northwestern
University. After working on memory-enhancing drugs at G.D. Searle &
Company in Illinois for two years, he earned his Ph.D. in neuroscience from the
University of California, Irvine, in 1990. Following postdoctoral research in
Germany, he returned to UC Irvine to extend his research to studies of human
subjects, which in turn led to his discoveries about sex influences on
emotional memory, and to his current general interest in the profoundly
important issue of sex influences on brain function. His work has been
highlighted in the New York Times, London Times, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, and on PBS, CNN, and 60 Minutes.
